drew this when my wifi was down. SERAF cadet Aki

#lineart jumpscare. sorry #lineart is my enemy forever. i hate it so much #i wanted to do a more 'pilots license id photo' thing for her that was a little more realistic #bc i realized i never draw her dimples or acne even though they're so freakin cute #babygirl you are my aanngeellllll #art #digital art #oc #artists on tumblr

#everyone observe them doing a little dance (mandatory. required viewing.)

some vel doodles while i'm reworking their design

#weirdly enough this is circling back closer to her og design. idk how that happened #they are perfecting the art of the autism stare #i have no longer lost the plot on vel. i have un-lost it. so i actually have some sense of direction with their design :D

found this drawing completely finished in my file explorer despite having absolutely no memory of drawing it. idk. everyone say hi aphra.

#(like noticing a dog that has something in its mouth that it shouldn't) aphra. APHRA GET BACK HERE. WHERES AKI. APHRA. WHERE;S AKI #don't worry they only commit METAPHORICAL cannibalism in canon 👍👍 #art #oc #my art #artists on tumblr #digital art #digital painting

most normal girl to ever exist

#there were way more drawings but i cut them bc they either don't actually show up in the story or i just wasn't happy with them #god bless Aki she really TRIED to get her shit together before all the weird cult stuff happened #also this seems to imply she's in a terrible mood all the time but i think the 2nd drawing is most accurate to her general energy #very happy-go-lucky and charismatic even though frankly she IS mostly in a terrible mood because of. events #that's not her fault though. #art #oc #original character #character design #artists on tumblr #digital art #my art

the trainwreck of the narrative hasn't hit you yet

#(shaky thumbs up) it's baby aki. she's doing just fine. don't ask #won't someone stop this??? *remembers that i am responsible for all of the fucked up stuff* #anyways she's about 15-16ish here. plot kicks off when she dies at 16. #art #original character #digital art #artists on tumblr #digital painting #oc

babygirl of all time

#VEL <3 BEEN TOO LONG SINCE I LAST DREW THEM #image description in alt because i FINALLY have access to it #for some reason this whole time tumblr just would not let me use the image alt. no clue why #i love all my characters but vel is my 1st and so they get special treatment (rotating them in my head though the plot long fell apart) #art #artists on tumblr #digital art #digital painting #character design #original character

biting as a love language

[image description: a digital painting of my characters, bex and soph, against an semi-abstract blue and orange background. bex is a midsized woman with pale skin and curly salt-and-pepper hair. soph has brown skin and dreads, also with grey streaks, and several piercings. they are both wearing white winter clothes stained with blood and dirt, and there is blood smeared both of their faces. soph is sitting against a wall and bex is kneeling next to him. he is holding her right arm and biting down into her forearm while she winces. there is a light behind their heads creating a heart-shaped halo. end image description]

#scene from the story i am working on with them. BITES YOU BITES YOU BITES YOU #i am obsessed with them i can't stop thinking about them i need them to make each other worse #art #digital art #artists on tumblr #digital painting #tw biting #tw blood #i got tired of rendering this so i gave up but good enough lmao

i keep not finishing things so here's a wip. saint of song and am radio

[image description: a messy digital painting of Aki, a brown-skinned Asian woman with long black hair in braids. her hair is going grey at the temples. she has a neutral expression and there is a glowing halo symbol on the center of her face. she is wearing a red jacket with a radio box strapped to her chest. her right arm, which is bionic, is lifted up to her face. end image description]

real quick doodle of myself (:

[image description: a messy digital doodle of a light-skinned person with a septum piercing. they have dyed yellow hair styled in a fluffy mullet and are wearing headphones. they are wearing a green top, black biker shorts, and a white vest, as well as fluffy striped boots. they have visible leg hair. they are smiling with their eyes closed and are making a peace sign. end image description]

#gonna dye my hair this weekend but i've just been walking around with it bleached no toner for a bit #i got complimented by a teenage boy about it and i've been getting MA'AMed and YOUNG LADY'd in public more often which makes me think #people are overcompensating. lol #art #artists on tumblr #digital art #self portrait
